Do you really think that some random fact like that is supposed to be "a secret"? If you told me that you like to paint in the park I wouldn't think it's some kind of a big secret.

The lessons being their coworker blabs any personal info on their coworkers to boss and the boss, apparently, weaponizes this info.

The point here, and of this whole post, being... watch what you say to others, especially people you work with.

Why would I want that? Am I some kind of spy whose job is to sabotage the company and turn people against each other?

It's just innocent small talk and you act like they sold out your mother to nazi collaborators. Jeez...
